Non-Legume Cover Crop Seed

Non-Legume Cover Crop Seed

Specialty non-legumes are planted to take care of a particular problem in a hurry, be it weed suppression, erosion control, or to break up compacted soil. Often planted in combination with a legume. These non-legumes will also attract beneficial insects and provide substantial quantities of organic matter to the soil when tilled under. Varieties include Daikon, Mustard and Phacelia.
